Where human civilization once stood, prosperity has vanished, leaving only endless stretches of rocks.

It was desolate and deserted, with even traces of the mutated beings rarely seen.

Meng Yi stood suspended in mid-air, and began setting up the ceremony with a dazed expression.

He planned to temporarily place the "true form" of the goddess of nature here.

For a righteous god like him who wields the authority of rituals, setting up a modified version of the "divine descent" ritual would not require much effort.

Simply follow your instincts.

On the contrary, what the Thorn Lord said was the key point for him.

First of all...

The term "creator" sounds like it should refer to the real world.

Perhaps... they are gods who have mastered the real world, just as the goddess of nature envisioned, becoming the "masters of the world" and controlling everything.

So, is the consciousness of the real world another "creator"?

Yin and Yang, Gemini... turning against each other?

Why didn't they become enemies earlier, but only thirty years ago?

Moreover, what "gods" existed in the real world before?

Hmm? That's not necessarily true.

If I don't understand it, I'll leave it for now.

Rumble... As Meng Yi subconsciously sketched out the patterns, large areas of intricate and mysterious ritual runes began to appear on the undulating rock layers below.

These array patterns not only point to the "true form" of the Goddess of Nature and Meng Yi himself, but also to two "divine kingdoms".

This time, Meng Yi decided to bypass the real world and instead rely on the power of the "divine kingdom" for this "modified divine descent ritual".

Under the current circumstances, it is best not to disturb the real world; otherwise, the ritual will most likely fail.

That's strange...

He suddenly thought of a question: if the real world is hostile to the real world, then why... are the rituals performed by humans and their families "always granting requests"?

While there was malice involved, the general approach was to respond to every request.

Shouldn't we have ignored them or even gone so far as to harm them?

In the real world, that kind of "I'll respond to you, but I'll also hurt you a little" attitude... well... it's a bit... strange.

Moreover, the Thorn Lord has survived for a full thirty years without being killed by the Real World.

The Lord of Procreation can be said to "still have a use," as the Real World wants to use Him to produce offspring. But what about the Lord of Thorns and Withered Leaves?

Meng Yi naturally came to a conclusion:

The thorns may wither, but the master remains strong.

Otherwise, the other party wouldn't be able to survive for thirty years, let alone be able to "communicate" with me today, even with the initial recovery of the real world.

Like the "Lord of the Stars," who may appear to wield only one authority and be a single-path righteous god, he may actually be far more complex than he seems.

At that moment, he had an impulse to change the arrangement of the ritual below, changing the ritual pointing to the Goddess of Nature to pointing to the "Lord of the Stars" and the "God of Justice".

Well, the goddess of nature is unreliable, and these others are not necessarily so either; they too are shrouded in many mysteries.

Moreover, they can descend into the real world along with the gods, and then it will be clear whether they are friend or foe.

Perhaps the "Lord of the Stars" and the "God of Justice" can give Gemini and the goddess of nature some great surprises.

If she's a "liar," then I'll maintain a "good brother-sister" relationship with my "good sister."

Thinking of this, Meng Yi gave a self-deprecating smile.

I used to say that the "Lord of Procreation" was unlucky, that the "Lord of Thorns" or the "All-Seeing Eye" was unlucky, but in fact, wasn't I an unlucky guy myself?

Which of these goddesses—the goddess of nature, the lord of the stars—is truly believable?

Sometimes I feel so helpless...

Buzz~

A bright, radiant light suddenly rose up from below.

The ceremony has been arranged; all that remains is for "Meng Ran" to bring enough spirits.

Meng Yi did not conceal the commotion here, because the "departure" of the Goddess of Nature could not be hidden from the Real World, which also meant that it could not be hidden from the Gemini.

Covering it up is pointless.

Ha... Actually, I'm not a bad guy at all.

A new idea popped into his mind... After all, I can always trust the Grand Arbitrators.

He took a deep breath, cleared his mind, and began to wait patiently.

After an unknown amount of time, a large, exceptionally dense shadow rapidly spread towards this place.

The shadow covered a wide area, and its movement created a feeling of a roaring mountain and a tsunami.
